According to the USA Today story ‘Forbes’: Facebook CEO is youngest self-made billionaire by Del Jones…
“Billionaires are getting younger. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, 23, became the youngest ever self-made billionaire. Zuckerberg, born during the Ronald Reagan presidency, is worth $1.5 billion four years after launching the social-networking site and the third-youngest to crack the billionaire list since Forbes began tracking ages a decade ago. The other two inherited their money.”
“Gates is worth $58 billion, $2 billion more than last year, but he is now third on the list. He was dislodged by Warren Buffett ($62 billion) and Mexican tycoon Carlos Slim Helu ($60 billion). Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway stock climbed $10 billion; Slim’s fortune rose $11 billion.”
